Car bodies can stand terrific punishment. Similar progress has taken place it. road building. The modern highway, with traffic lanes, banked turns and "skidless" surfaces, is a tribute to engineering science, which has done wonders in seek- i ing to make driving safe and pleasant. Yet automobile accidents con- tinue to rise both in number and severity.

The motorist nas no alibi. He can't blame the car or the road for mishaps, save in an infinitesimal percentage of instances. The human element- and the human element alone -is at fault in ninety-odd accidents out of a hundred. Most drivers are competent. Most are careful.

Most realize that cn automobile is a potential killer. But that minority of motorists which is either careless, incompetent, or plain reckless, menaces us an. remaps ten per cent or drivers fall into one of those cate- i tories and the lives, health and i 211 SECOND STREET GYPSY UT ROMANCE ews IL W.

But with all of these things that were so fine she left the finest of them all in the bottom of the last drawer and it was the shawl the Dummy had painted for her.

They were her only pair, for with all of her clothes she was still barefoot. She did not realize they were keeping- her She squeezed her toes into the slippers and like one walking- on eggs paraded up and down the room, swaying: her hips and slouching her shoulders as she had seen gorgio women do.

In that respect the people are matching the collectors this year, Testimony was adduced at the hearing that the tax collectors had been tirged by their representatives not only to oppose the Moomaw-! Moran bill, which would abolish a majority of the tax collectorships, but to support efforts to bring tibout legislation which would "make the posts of the tax-collectors more desirable." Propon- uts of the plan for centralized collection could turn that phrase to their own account, for they could well contend that the posts of the tax collectors could be made more desirable from the taxpay-I er's point of view by having fewer of thetil. The amazing statement was made at the hearing that while the aver age cost of collecting tax-I es in Pennsylvania is li mills, the average cost in Luzerne County is 22 mils. This points to and emphasizes the special interest which Luzerne County is warranted in having in a revision of the tax col-I lection system.

It can be ssiid to 'the credit of the taxpayers of this county that they sent rcpresenta-; tives to the hearing to press for the passage of the bill. Although not speaking for the Administration, Dr. Harr, secretary of banking, advocated the bill, terming it a means of placing tax collection on a sound basis." His indorsement in if matter of this kind should carry weight. We doubt that, he would indorse an ill-considered measure treating such an important matter. i When we read that Benjamin H.

Ludlow, of Montgomery County saiil, "Some tax collectors get more than the Governor and Lieu-i tenant-Governor together," we ar; tempted to believe that he was acquainted with tax collections and i commissions in Luzerne County in their heyday. It is time that the taxpayers should have more to say about 1 how much they should pay for having their taxes collected. The opportunity presents itself in the Moomaw-Moran hill.
